Check out some “autocueillette orchards”

Enjoy the last of the moderate weather before winter by going on an apple picking excursion. Apple picking is a beloved fall tradition in Quebec City, and the region offers no shortage of beautiful orchards to spend the day at. Just 15 minutes from downtown Quebec City, Île d’Orléans is an agricultural haven that is home to a number of apple farms and cider factories. For apple picking that is as picturesque as it is delicious, try Côte-de-Beaupré, a farm located alongside the Saint Lawrence river.

Engage with the Pierre Bonnard exhibition

For fans of French art, there has never been a more exciting time to visit Quebec’s capital. From early October to mid January, the Musée National Des Beaux-Arts will host one of its most exciting exhibitions to date. Organized in partnership with the Arthemisia Group in Italy, the museum will present Pierre Bonnard – La Couleur Radieuse, a major retrospective of the work of French artist Pierre Bonnard. The exhibition’s theme will centre around Bonnard’s principal philosophy: “The object is not to paint life, but to make life come alive.” The exhibition will feature some of the artist’s most beloved works, such as his vibrant painting Paysage du Midi et deux enfants (1916-1918).
